    Internal hemorrhoids are graded on a scale of 1 to 4 based on their size and severity, with grade 1 being the smallest hemorrhoids inside the lining of the anus and grade 4 being the largest hemorrhoids that protrude outside the anus permanently. The document then describes the characteristics of each grade, noting that higher grades indicate larger hemorrhoid size and greater prolapse outside of the anus. External hemorrhoids are located under the skin around the anus and cause pain in addition to bleeding.

    GRADING HAEMORROID

     Internal Piles - are located far within the rectum, and can’t be seen or felt.
    The only symptom is usually bleeding.
    Internal piles can be classified into 4 grades:

    o Grade1: These are tiny haemorrhoids within


    the lining of the anus.
    o Grade 2: These haemorrhoids too lie within
    the anus and are slightly larger than grade 1
    haemorrhoids. These haemorrhoids may get
    pushed out while passing stool but return to
    the original position on their own.
    o Grade 3: These are also known as
    'prolapsed haemorrhoids'. They appear
    outside the anus. The patient can push them
    back in by pressing against them with his
    fingers.
    o Grade 4: These haemorrhoids cannot be
    pushed back and stay outside the anus at all
    times. They need to be treated by a doctor
    who usually suggests a surgery.
     External Piles - are located around the anus right under the skin, where
    there are many pain-sensing nerves. They, therefore, hurt as well as bleed.
